Bryan Adams Bass-Syncing on the Tonight Show?

Did anyone see Bryan (Summer of '69) Adams on the Tonight Show "playing" bass? I honest to God think he was "Bass Syncing"! He was performing a song from the "Spirit" movie soundtrack, he had a cast on his right arm...and I think because of the cast, he couldn't play guitar. Hence, he slapped on a Silver P-bass and "Bass-Synched" the line played by the keyboardist (not even close, I might add)! Was anyone else witness to this horror show?

I figure he just felt more comfortable with something strapped on, and since you can't really fake strum with a cast on, his only option was to fake some fingerstyle on a bass. The thing was the bassline to the song had an eighth note drive to it and he was plucking whole notes without nailing the down beats. I will not even get in to what his left hand was doing...
